The simultaneous opening of Pompenburg Park and the completed Luchtsingel was to take place on Sunday 24 August but is postponed because of the bad weather forecast.

The construction of the wooden bridge started two years ago during the 5th IABR: Making City and its completion would be celebrated in the final weekend of IABR–2014– with an URBAN PICNIC for the whole of Rotterdam in the area surrounding the Luchtsingel.
